Racecourse Guide
Known as the headquarters of British racing, Newmarket’s Rowley Mile course features a clutch of top quality events such as the 1000 and 2000 Guineas in early May and the Dubai Future Champions Festival in October. One of the fairest tracks in the world, racing at the Rowley Mile is divided into two seasons, spring and autumn, and only on rare occasions does the ground ride on the soft side. The Rowley Mile course features the longest straight in Britain, and has just one turn in longer distance races to negotiate. It is a wide track with an uphill finish, which is ideal for horses with big, long strides (except for in the Dip where they can get unbalanced).
Racing switches from the Rowley Mile to the popular July Course during the summer months. The highlight of the season is the Group 1 July Cup, Europe’s leading six furlongs sprint, which takes place on the final day of the three-day July Meeting. The six evening meetings are amongst the most popular fixtures staged anywhere in the country. The July Course features a sharper bend to get onto the straight on races over a mile, using the Cesarewitch course for the initial start. Both courses finish uphill: on the July Course a long downhill stretch is followed by an uphill final furlong, while the Rowley Mile runs down into the Dip before rising to the line.
Dining, Hospitality & Facilities
For a finer, premium experience there are plenty of hospitality options available. There are two restaurants – The Summer House Restaurant (located at the July Course) and the Champions Gallery (located at the Rowley Mile).
If you’re part of a bigger group or are looking to host friends and family then there is also the option of a private box to hire, each with its own balcony for race viewing. On the July Course you can also book The Rose Terrace Experience or one of the Trackside Pavilions. Packages and prices vary by fixture, so see the racecourse website for current options.
Tickets
There are various enclosures you can get tickets for at Newmarket, including:
- Garden Enclosure (cheapest option) is the family friendly area, where racegoers are able to bring picnics, tables, chairs and blankets to enjoy the racing in their own comfort. There are also play areas for the children and betting facilities available for adults.
- Grandstand & Paddock (mid-range option) gives racegoers an improved view of the racecourse, as well as access to certain restaurants and more food outlets. You also have access to the Pre-Parade Ring and the Winners Enclosure.
- Premier Enclosure (top-range option) allows racegoers to stand by the Winning Post and gives excellent views of the final straight. You also have access to the Pre-Parade Ring and the Winners Enclosure. There is a smart dress code for this enclosure.
The Effect of the Draw
The Rowley Mile course is very wide and the volume of racing here means that Newmarket move the rails on a regular basis to even wear on the track. No consistent bias can therefore be relied upon from meeting to meeting. When betting on races like the 2000 Guineas it is often helpful to assess the previous races on the day to give an indication of whether the position of the rails is having an effect on the draw. You need to watch the earlier races on the same day. The course is slightly inclined towards the finish so horses which go off too fast in the five or six furlong races struggle to make the distance.
